Bright young thing

A veteran of the international fashion industry for more than a decade, Australian designer Collette Dinnigan has an uncanny ability to consistently produce collections that are fresh, feminine and unequivocally youthful.  Easily the most celebrated designer in her home country, and the first Australian to  show at Paris Fashion Week, Dinnigan has made a career out of foraging her own fashion path.

For Spring 2011, Dinnigan's kept to her road-less-traveled path.  In a week that has seen a litany of over-the-top theatrical collections that sometimes veer towards absurd or frightening, Dinnigan delivered a variety of hyper-wearable summer dresses, sweet cocktail looks and several beachy day dresses, that were easily envisioned on the backs of college girls from Sydney to San Francisco.
